We are a retired couple running an exclusive bed and breakfast holiday retreat, remote and high in the mountains of Crete. The house is set in extensive gardens spread over a hilltop and we need help with all sorts of setup and maintenance garden tasks - preparing beds, planting, pruning, building stone walls and laying paths. We also have a ruin in which we want to establish a Persian garden, with fountains, shade and mosaics.

We need helpers who can stay for 3 weeks or more, from late April to end June and relish outdoor work. Although we dont ask anyone to do anything we wouldnt do, we need fit and strong helpers for these garden tasks.

Hi. I live in a remote area up in the mountains of northern Naxos (Cyclades) My house was only built a few years ago and although the outside is finished, the interior is still a work in progress.

I could use some help on various projects on my land: garden work, mostly clearing, weeding & digging, the house needs painting, and I want to make a chicken coop. Wood needs cutting and stacking...there is plenty to do and anyone who doesn´t mind a bit of hard work is welcome. I am also looking for people with general building experience, and in particular skilled plumbers, plasterers, carpenters and floor-layers. I want to stress that this type of work is not something I can teach anyone, so although you may be adaptable and quick to learn, I only want experienced people for the building projects. I offer food and accommodation in exchange for your input.

My place is really only suitable for self- sufficient practical people who don´t mind living in a remote place and who enjoy pe... more inside

Hi, we are Swiss couple, Barbra and Roberto and we live with our 15 year old daughter in the south of the peloponnes on a large piece of land that has fig, olive and fruit trees. We also have horses and animals so we always welcome help.

Mainly we need help in the winter with the olive harvest but in the summer we need people to help us with picking figs as well. There is plenty more to do such as taking care of the animals and building work (currently we are building walls, a cage for pheasants and getting our garden ready for vegetables) and just general help with the upkeep of our land.

If you come to stay there is always plenty of space. We have a new stables that has two rooms and a bathroom which you could use or in the summer people often prefer to sleep outside on one of the balconies that overlook the mountains and the sea.

We generally prefer people who are able to stay for more than just a couple of weeks.

We would be happy to accommodate 2-4 people who can help us during harvest season (January to February) and all year round for various jobs from the projects that we run.
